Newspaper Nails


               Introducing newspaper nails. They are sooo cute and easy! These are my friend's nails but I did them on mine and they are just as simple. It takes a little while to fully master but, it is definitely possible so here are the instructions.
Materials
  • Light colored base coat
  • Clear top coat
  • Newspaper
  • Rubbing alcohol
  • Small cup 
Firstly.... Apply the bottom base coat and wait until fully dry
2.  Dip a small piece of newspaper in the cup filled with rubbing alcohol
3. Put the newspaper on your nail but not too hard. Like a tattoo! The kid kind.
4. Leave it on while applying some more alcohol on top with a cotton ball. Keep it there for around 20 seconds. Also, make sure that the whole nail is equally bold. So, tap the newspaper on your nail.
5. Carefully peel it off and there you have it. Newspaper on your nail
6. A top coat is always necessary to give it a finished shine ;D

Super Easy Roll Up

                 This hair style is soo easy to do and takes around 5-10 minutes. Honestly pretty hair takes some time! If you want me to put up a tutorial, comment on this post. This hairstyle is casual but elegant and is great for yoga or stretching. It uses some bobby pins as you can see but the hair style is sturdy that way. You might be wondering how does she do it? I'll let you in on a secret: head band. This hairstyle also looks a lot better with curly hair but ehh it works for straight hair too.

Zebra Glitz Nails

          The finished product and a real finger nail :O

                      I'm using a free Impress sample as my model ^-^ So first I used a skinny black brush which you can find anywhere in a drugstore. When you make your first mark, make the beginning of the line a little thicker and naturally stroke the brush to make a uneven line that is skinnier at the tips. Alternate lengths on the same side and then do the same of the other side. Yeah... I messed up on the right side. Heh heh. But, you can hardly tell from afar. For the empty spaces draw a few extra strokes but try not to overdo it even though it is really fun. I kind of did this backwards but do the finishing glitter before the clear coat. Apply the glitter on some of the black lines but not all of them. Now, for the clear coat it is perfectly fine to over stroke the brush over the nail several times. That would make the black line to bleed and cause a nice transition like a real zebra print. It makes the nail line look more softer and real. Just wipe the black off  your clear coat afterwards. And there it is. ZEBRA PRINT. If you have any questions comment, and I will be glad to answer them :)

Track

                     
                   Okay, so this year I want to join track at my school. Well, actually I'm already on the team. YAY! But let me tell you something, IT IS HARD WORK. Every 2 days in a weeks  my team and I meet at a park and run a lot. My coach is there too. It is really fun to get sweaty and tired but know what you just accomplished. We run for around 2 hours and 30 minutes (with breaks) and then go home and take a shower. Running is so fun and good for you too. Okay some of you might think that running is boring and yeah I can see your point. But, its nice to know what you can do. For example, my team and I run a .6 mile track a couple of times and a .8 mile track occasionally. I would've never known I could run that long without trying. Its really fascinating in what we are when we try and when we don't. I guess it's like a Christian life. When we dont try and are not motivated in knowing God, then we would never know what God has in store for us. We have to let Jesus into our lives. That has kind of been my goal this year. To reach out to God so He can work in my life. Whether it is joining praise team or simply reading the bible. How could we know what it's like to live with Jesus when we are not letting Him in? How could I know my capability of running if I'm a coach potato? It is all connected my friends. The first step in being obedient with God is getting baptized. I decided to make that decision this year on Easter Sunday. It was definitely the right decision to publicly announce my love for Christ. Wow I went off in a tangent! But, that is what has been on my mind recently so there you have it :)

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Rabbit Style


             I am very happy to say, that forevercrazyrabbit has merchandise! I present hand crafted carrots made with shredded paper and love! Okay, these really aren't for sale but, I gave them to people secretly in their classrooms at church you know, for advertising! But I'm so happy they came out the way that they did. They are cute and SUPER comfortable!
             Now, the story of crazy rabbit is one to remember for the rest of your life. Hmm... I kind of forgot it but my family always called me rabbit because I was really white and soft when I was little. Anyways, now, I am still a rabbit. I think it was in the car when I did something crazy and Chubster was like ... WAIT NO! I remember. I was taking a nap in the car and I was woken up by Cbubster who kept opening my eye lids. She left me alone for a while and I continued "fake sleeping" then I all of a sudden opened my eyes and started saying "jah jah jah jah jah" And she was all like "Huh? You crazy rabbit!" I'm not sure how the illustration of the crazy rabbit became but I am definitely sure it was the best one I made.

Sushi Nails!



          This here my friends is the first ever sushi nails. I did them for Chubster for her birthday! Cute little onigiris, sushi rolls, and shrimp on rice neatly planted on her nails. If you want the instructions, just post a comment. Haha yeah they aren't that neat. I also don't really have a range of colors (as you can see with the purple). A trick I used is with a toothpick and bobby pin  for the eyes or detailed stuff like the shrimp lines or faces. Yeah the faces, I rushed them because we had to leave someplace :( I also mixed some drops of colors like the shrimp. I mixed a skin peach color with very little hot pink and got a more bolder color. I LOVE the onigiris though! They are so fat and actually the easiest to d out of all the nails. If you want, you could make all of your nails onigiris! Yup, so thats all I got to say and remember, if you want the instructions just leave a comment :)







Soooo Typical

Watching TV while eating some good duck wings
             This is what we did after whale watching in Taiwan. And this is our hotel. To get to the hotel garage, you had to go down a car elevator. It gave me the creeps.
